Chapter 1: Scientific Understanding of Behavior
Learning Objectives
• Describe why it is essential to understand research methods.
• Explain the scientific approach to learning about behavior and be able to compare and
contrast it with other ways of knowing.
• Identify and explain key features of the scientific approach to understanding behavior, and
be able to compare and contrast it with a pseudoscientific approach.
• Describe and give examples of the four goals of scientific research: description, prediction,
determination of cause, and explanation of behavior.
• Summarize the three elements for inferring causation: temporal order, covariation of cause
and effect, and elimination of alternative explanations. Be able to generate an example.
• Determine whether a study is basic or applied research.
